Senior Engineer - Microfluids and Perfusion Interfaces

Lead perfusion system development: Design and build microfluidic and perfusion platforms that support long-term cell and tissue culture through controlled nutrient delivery, gas exchange, and waste management.

Engineer culture interfaces: Develop biocompatible fluidic architectures and culture chambers that maintain stable physiological conditions while enabling imaging, sampling, and experimental manipulation.

Optimize fluid and gas transport: Model and experimentally validate flow dynamics, oxygenation, and mass transport to ensure stable culture environments across varying developmental stages and tissue scales.

Prototype and iterate rapidly: Design, fabricate, and test devices using microfabrication and rapid prototyping approaches (e.g., CNC machining, laser cutting, soft lithography, additive manufacturing), iterating based on biological performance.

Collaborate across disciplines: Work closely with developmental biologists to translate biological constraints into engineering specifications and with software/data teams to integrate monitoring and experimental control systems.
